Adjust the overall colour balance and ranges of a shading system.
Colour Correction
Method #
This node changes the overall colour balance and ranges of its parent shading node.
The output of this node is a shader, which can either be combined with other Shading nodes for more complex designs, or applied to Materials to directly control one of the material channels. They can also be applied to Fields, where they can be used on the various channels on the Field Emitters to control how the smoke is generated, and Field Materials to control how the field is rendered.
Parameters
These properties control the core behaviours of the node.
Parameter Details In Black
Darken the dark parts of the image.
In White
Brighten the light parts of the image.
Out Black
Darkens the dark parts of the image.
Out White
Brighten the light parts of the image.
Gamma
Changes the gamma value of the image.
Brightness
Control the brightness of the image.
Contrast
Control the contrast of the image.
Saturation
Control the saturation of the image.
Hue
Control the hue of the image.
Preview In Viewport
Passes this node’s output to the destination material as a colour channel, so it can be previewed more easily.
The properties control the time at which the node is active. See Timeline for editing time segments.
Parameter Details Duration
Control the duration of the node’s time segment.
- Composition Duration : Use the length of the composition for the node’s time segment duration.
- Custom : Set a custom duration for the node’s time segment.
Node Time
The custom start and end time for the node.
Duration (Timecode)
The length of the node’s time segment (in time).
Duration (Frames)
The length of the node’s time segment (in frames).
Time Segment Enabled
Set whether the node’s time segment is enabled or not in the Timeline.
